マーケットチャット:インドネシア、トヨタがランプンで最大3億ドルのバイオエタノールプロジェクトを検討

By

-- ロイター通信が月曜日に報じたところによると、インドネシアは日本の自動車大手トヨタ自動車(TM)と、国内でのバイオエタノール生産に向けた共同事業の可能性について協議を行っている。 インドネシアのトドトゥア・パサリブ投資副大臣によると、このプロジェクトにはインドネシア国営電力会社プルタミナの再生可能エネルギー部門が関与しており、工場はスマトラ島南端のランプン州に建設される予定だ。 年間6万キロリットルのバイオエタノール生産能力を持つこの工場は、両者が合意に達すれば、早ければ2026年後半に建設が開始され、2028年には生産が開始される可能性がある。 パサリブ副大臣によると、工場の原料となるバイオエタノールは、新たに造成される6,000ヘクタール(14,800エーカー)のソルガム農園で生産される予定で、総投資額は2億ドルから3億ドルに達する可能性があるという。 日本の次世代自動車燃料バイオマスイノベーション研究協会(raBit)も協議に参加しており、トヨタの幹部らは、同プラントで生産されるバイオエタノールを自社車両の燃料として利用できることを強調した。 これは、インドネシアが輸入燃料への依存度を低減するため、パームバイオマス、トウモロコシ、ソルガムなどの国内原料を用いたバイオエタノール生産の拡大を推進している中で起こった。インドネシア政府はまた、2028年からガソリンへのバイオエタノール混合率を10%にすることを義務付ける計画だ。 トヨタとインドネシア投資省は、による本件に関するコメント要請にすぐには応じなかった。 (マーケットチャッターのニュースは、世界中の市場専門家との会話に基づいて作成されています。この情報は信頼できる情報源に基づいていると考えられますが、噂や憶測が含まれる可能性があります。正確性は保証されません。)

Crude Oil Prices Rise on Stalled U.S.-Iran Peace Talks

Crude oil prices rose on Monday as talks to end the war between the U.S. and Iran remain frozen and flows through the crucial Strait of Hormuz continue to be disrupted.Brent crude at last look gained 2.7% to US$108.17/barrel and West Texas Intermediate crude climbed 2.4% to $96.63/barrel. The U.S. and Iran appear to still be far apart on issues including Iran's nuclear ambitions and the reopening of the strait, Reuters said in a Monday report."The diplomatic stand-off means that every day 10-13 million barrels of oil fail to get to the international market, worsening an already tight oil balance. Therefore, there is only one direction for oil prices to go," Reuters quoted PVM Oil Associates analyst Tamas Varga as saying.Goldman Sachs raised its fourth-quarter oil price forecasts to $90/barrel for Brent and $83/barrel for WTI, citing reduced output from the Middle East, the report said.
